Warlock of War: My Ares System

"Of course, I have the determination… you damn gods," I muttered with a smile.

But, today wasn't a good day as I had dinner with some of my friends, and I noticed I was completely exhausted after taking a shower.

So, I'll just do it tomorrow since I have infinite time.

The dinner was pretty shit since all of us were dirt poor… but we made the most of it and even had a small sparring session where, like always, Cy completely destroyed me and the rest of us.

"Just *sniff* wait till I use a sniper…." Aisa muttered as we all had a post-spar snack, and Cy still looked to be raring to go.

"Where did you learn to use a spear so well? Are you self-taught?" I asked as his growth and potential were unbelievable.

"Nah… My dad taught me," He responded, and his giddy attitude wavered a bit… So I knew something had happened with his dad.

I didn't dig any deeper but instead brought up a new topic.

"Can anybody here protect me while I'm experimenting in my room? Well, it's more like shielding people from spying into my room," I asked.

With the group of seven people, only one could make it after class as everybody else was doing something.

"I can do it," Aisa raised her hand.

I immediately thanked her before we all split ways towards our dorm rooms.

…

The next day passed by pretty quickly, and once all of our classes had passed, I met up with Aisa in my room, where I presented all of my ingredients.

"You are… *sniff* insane. Absolutely insane *sniff*," She said before glancing at me.

"How?"

"Are you seriously *sniff* going to pull out your *sniff* eyes?"

"Oh, there's a new method that has surfaced on the internet, but it was actually created a few decades ago. You just need this toxic slime right here, and you'll be good," I responded.

"How long have you researched it? What if there are any faul-... Never mind," She muttered.

"What?"

"There's no way you *sniff* wouldn't do such a thing without knowing the risks. Also, *sniff* I'm sure you've researched more than enough," She responded as I began to fix everything together.

"Anyway, everything is good now. Just make sure nobody enters the room, but also make sure you, yourself, don't interrupt the process,"

"Yes, sir," She says before standing in front of the door.

Toxic slime. Lightning slime. A few large healing potions. And, my eyes.

If I could, I would've just used this on already prepared eyeballs, but obviously, I wouldn't be able to connect them, and most importantly, they would have no life essence.

So, the process only really works on live eyeballs… It really sucks, but I can't do anything about it.

Everything was ready, so without hesitation, I began.

First, I grabbed the healing potion beside me, placed the contents in my mouth, and before I swallowed, I opened the jar of toxic green slime.

As the weird tasting potion sat in my mouth, I took in a deep breath through my nose and began pouring the contents onto both of my eyes.

Please work…

I had [Toxic Immunity], but this reward from the boss should be able to bypass it as that is its special trait.

Ssssss

My eyes began to burn, and the pain was excruciating.

I suppressed the urge to scream by swallowing the potion in my mouth, but the protective layer over my eye had now disintegrated, so I quickly opened the jar of lightning slime.

My eyes were drying out quickly, but as I poured the lightning slime on my eyes, I drank another mouthful of the large potion.

I lost all feeling in my face, but thankfully, the slimes began to react with each other.

But, the reaction was a bit weak, so I poured more of the toxic slime this time, and thankfully, I couldn't feel it at all, so I proceeded calmly.

"Foooooo…"

Even more, sparks began to fly into the air, and I could feel my eyes slowly beginning to reform.

I just needed it to get far enough into my eye, to where it could actually react and successfully create the complete eye.

[Formation of the Midnight Storm Eyes has begun…]

A singular panel appeared in front of me, and Aisa looked in horror at the sight of my eyes melting but then reforming with tiny strands of flesh.

The process was going much smoother than I thought.

I just needed to continue drinking potions; otherwise, the process would end up in me going completely blind.

Suddenly, a wave of pain rushed throughout my head like the worst headache in the world, and it felt as if my eyes were continuously melting now.

The sensation without pain just made me shiver and grimace slightly.

I poured more of the yellow slime onto my eyes, but they just continuously kept melting.

[You have successfully created: Midnight Storm Eyes]

[Error]

[The Midnight Storm Eyes have rejected you]

[The Midnight Storm Eyes are searching for a new host…]

The formed parts of the new eyes suddenly split off of my remaining original eyes, causing the large potion to rapidly heal my actual eyes with the help of the toxic slime.

My passive skill: [Toxic Body] was doing most of the work as it had now adjusted to the slime.

This was one of my insurances... but I never expected the eyes to reject me.

I've never seen an instance as to where that happened.

"AHHHHHH!"

Suddenly, Aisa beside me began to scream in pain, and as she was the only other person with eyes in the room, the eyes could only go for her.

Her eyes began to bleed blood as her pale gray pupils started to turn into a thunderous and powerful yellow that emitted sparks with every blink that she did.

But, that didn't save her from the pain of the process.

Plus, the flesh behind her eyes was beginning to melt, so I immediately fed her some of the potions.

My eyes had entirely returned to normal, but they were a bit blurry, and I couldn't help but continuously cry blood.

My eyes stung, but Aisa's eyes stung more, so I focused on her and decided to just help her gain the eyes.

...

Twenty minutes had passed... but it felt like twenty years.

[You have obtained Partial Completion]

[The Midnight Lightning Eyes have entered a deep slumber]

"Huff… Huff… Huff…"
